I think it's actually a 60/40 split. No matter, it's rather ironic that, decades ago, the government broke up ATT, because they were a monopoly; in turn, this created many baby bells, and those same baby bells have resurrected the former parent, at least in name/brand.

You should read the whole thread, before posting. This is basically saying that the rumor of T-Mobile being on sale was a rumor which came about last year.

I hope we all know that ATT and ATT Wireless are two seperate entities. Cingular bought ATT Wireless, not ATT. ATT had nothing to do with the Cingualr buyout of ATT Wireless couple years ago. I did read that ATT is in turn thinking about buying Cingular by buying BellSouth.

If the Bell South and AT&T goes through, Cingular will become AT&T.
